Have you looked into the fuji-made M mount adaptor for your Leica lenses. It seems to have some (limited but perhaps useful) communication betwen the camera and the lens?

I have, and have owned one for years now. I don’t enjoy using it because my Leica M lenses end up odd effective focal lengths.

With the X-E4 you can put in the actual name of the lens and you can set the focal length to whatever number you want, and you can have several of these entries in the camera and then just pick the one you want to use.  It is very convenient now.

In past years there was maybe one or two focal lengths you could change, and there was no way to put in the name of the lens.  So, things are much better now!
